Use of electrocautery on the arthroscopic menisectomy

Abstract

Electrosurgery has been used for resection of meniscal resections, lateral retinacular release, plica cutting and arthrolysis for 1980’s. From 1992 January to 1998 January, 661 arthroscopic menisectomies were performed in our clinic. In this study, we evaluated 23 electrosurgical menisectomy cases and their intraoperative and postoperative problems. Electrosurgical technique is an effective method for resection of bucket handle, longitudinal and periferal meniscal tears and discoid meniscus cases. Furthermore, complication rate of this technique is fewer than expected.
